In a paper published in National Science Review, a research team from the Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, reveal differences in the near and far side lunar space environment from Chang’e-6 sample-based evidence. The Chang’e‑6 samples, from the Moon’s far side, lack the vapor deposited layers commonly generated by micrometeorite impacts, which are typically observed in samples from the Moon’s nearside and asteroids. The differences could mainly be driven by the specific space environment of the near and far side of the Moon.

In the wake of the 2023 Türkiye earthquake doublet, a rapid investigation of surface ruptures proved crucial for emergency response teams and scientific research. Experts from the Institute of Earthquake Forecasting, China Earthquake Administration successfully utilized post-earthquake high-resolution satellite imagery to precisely map the coseismic surface ruptures and conduct seismic hazard assessments of the East Anatolian Fault Zone. Notably, their application of China’s domestically produced GF-series high-resolution satellite images significantly advances global earthquake emergency research.

Nanomedicine is revolutionizing cancer treatment through precise drug delivery and advanced therapies, but clinical translation requires scalable solutions. Researchers in Japan have developed bacteria-enhanced graphene oxide nanoparticles that integrate chemotherapy, photothermal therapy, and immune activation, effectively suppressing tumors in mice. When combined with laser treatment, they achieved complete tumor eradication. This advancement offers a scalable, targeted approach, addressing the limitations of traditional therapies and paving the way for more effective cancer treatments.
